Prijedlog za mirno rješenje problema trovanja mačaka na Hvaru.

Uvod: Imidž turističke destinacije ovisi o više faktora, među njima ponašanje građana prema životinjama. Više od godinu dana neki ljudi u Hvaru bez milosti truju i ubiju mačke u Gradu Hvaru, bez obzira na imidž njihovog mjesta, a gosti su otišli zbog stravičnih prizora mrtvih mačaka koji plutaju u moru gdje ljudi se kupaju. I u drugim mjestima na Hvaru ljudi znaju otrovati mačke.

Zašto spasiti mačke? Imidž mjesta nije jedini niti glavni razlog za tražiti način na kojem se može zaustaviti ubijanje mačaka. Mačke su korisne životinje: love miševe, štakore, zmije i druge štetnike. U pravim uvjetima su samostalne i čiste.

Razumije se da nismo svi isti, nismo svi ljubitelji životinja. U društvu moramo živjeti mirno zajedno, i moramo poštivati zakone: ubijanje i zlostavljanje životinja po Članku 205. Kaznenog zakona (NN 125/2011.) su kaznena djela.

Nije prihvatljivo da vlasnici mačaka pate zbog mučenja i gubitaka svojih ljubimaca; da gosti, pogotovo djeca, vide grozne prizore mačaka u mukama; da interesi iznajmljivača budu ugroženi zbog ilegalnog djelovanja nekih ljudi; da policija, lokalne zajednice i pojedinci moraju izgubiti vrijeme, resurse (i živce) da bi spriječili akcije ubijanja, skupili dokaze i dignuli tužbe protiv osumnjičenih.

Zašto ljudi njih ubiju? Neki ljudi mrze životinje, često bez posebnog razloga. Nekima smetaju neke navike kod divljih zapuštenih mačaka, naime nekontrolirano parenje; galama kad mužjaci se tuku zbog ženki; i smrad od izmeta.

Projekt za spašavanje mačaka

Glavne točke:

1. Program sterilizacije mačaka. Taj program već funkcionira na Hvaru - i neke mačke koje su otrovane u Gradu Hvaru zadnjih mjeseci su bile sterilizirane, šta je veća šteta.

2. Stvoriti hranilišta za mačke na više mjesta, uz mjesta za nuždu (pjesak, zemlja u kutijama ako nema prirodnog mjesta).

3. Dati poticaj firmama i ljudima koji sudjeluju u projektu.

4. Voditi kampanju edukacije za mlade i odrasle, kako se može i mora brinuti za životinje, i zašto.

5. Dati do znanja preko plakata i obavijesti da lokalne vlasti će sudjelovati u akcijama za dovesti okrivljenike na sud ako krše zakon i muče ili ubiju mačke.

6. Izabrati slogan i/ili logo za projekt

Kako će projekt funkcionirati?

1. Program sterilizacije će se nastaviti: u početku projekta bi moglo biti veći broj mačaka za operaciju, jer bi bilo lakše uhvatiti ulične mačke.

2. Lokalna vlast će izabrati mjesta za hranilišta, i će biti odgovorna za čištoće tih lokacija, uz pomoć Udruga te pojedinaca prijatelja životinja.

3. Financiranje će biti uglavnom preko donacija i sponzorstvo: npr. novčane donacije će ići preko proračuna lokalne vlasti, i / ili u poseban račun kod Udruga za životinje; firme, pogotovo dučani, mogu donirati mačiju hranu; u dučanima, mogu biti kutije za donacije hrane u kojim kupci mogu ostaviti suhu hranu ili konzerve.

4. Svi zainteresirani koji hoće promovirati svoje mjesto na najbolji način će moći sudjelovati u projektu, npr. hoteli, restorani, kafići, barovi, turističke agencije itd., uz naravno pojedince. Svi koji su pružili dokazanu pomoć projektu bi mogli dobiti posebno priznanje za rad u navedenoj godini, npr. kad se slavi Dan grada ili Dan općine.

5. Kampanja edukacije bi mogla biti kroz radionice i volonterski rad sa uličnim mačkama.

6. Lokalne vlasti će staviti reklame u javnim prostorima i na internetu, naime na portalima i Facebook stranici.

7. Slogan / logo bi mogli biti predmet natječaja po školama.

8. U svakom mjestu gdje će projekt biti proveden, lokalna vlast će stvoriti upravni odbor za voditi akcije.

  • Study of Channel finds levels of toxic Pfas in Solent at 13 times safe limits in some places, with much coming from treated sewage

    Scientists have found high levels of toxic Pfas, or “forever chemicals”, in soil, water and throughout the marine food chain in the UK’s Solent strait, including at protected environmental sites, according to a new study.

    In some samples, pollution was 13 times the safe threshold for coastal waters. Others, which were below legal limits for individual chemicals, failed tests for combined toxicity.

  • Rush to develop fossil fuel infrastructure in Canada collides with laws meant to protect endangered species

    Environmental groups in Canada fear endangered orcas could become a casualty of Mark Carney’s push for a new oil pipeline, as the rush to develop fossil fuel infrastructure collides with laws meant to protect threatened species.

    The decades-long tragedy of the critically endangered southern resident orcas has become emblematic of ecosystem in crisis. But fishermen, whale-watching companies and the marine transport industry have long feuded over bears the most blame.

  • Rising demand for exotic pets is pushing many gibbon species to extinction, with their strong family bonds making them especially vulnerable to the brutal trade

    It is a cool morning in Thailand’s hilly north, and a wildlife officer sits on the veranda of Omkoi wildlife sanctuary’s office. On her lap is a wide-eyed infant primate dressed in baby clothes. Not unlike a human baby, he kicks and waves excitedly. Most of his dark skin is covered in dense white fur, except for his face and the palms of his hands.

    “We call him Chokdee,” the officer says. “It means ‘good luck’.”

  • Snitterton, Derbyshire: I’ve had some glorious early mornings admiring the abundance of these much-loved flowers

    This spring has specialised in very specific kinds of abundance. In February it was snowdrops in extraordinary numbers, but last month it was dandelions. My most exulted sighting came as I drove out of upper Dovedale when, from the corner of my eye, I caught a blanket of gold running over the slope.

    The flowers held the foreground before the eye travelled onwards to Sheen Hill in Staffordshire. We overuse the word “carpet”, but in this instance it was appropriate. Each bloom was about the same height as all its neighbours, and if you eliminated gaps in colour by getting down face to face with the flower heads, then the whole land was turned into a single glorious sunshine hue.

  • Caistor St Edmund, Norfolk: Firebugs congregate in large numbers to feast and mate – and this is the first time we’ve known their revelry on the farm

    At this time of year the farm is a popular spot, with people strolling, horse riding or picnicking from dawn till dusk. One of the unexpected joys of opening up public access is the extra pairs of eyes. A broken fence or fallen tree is noticed almost immediately; an otter is spotted slipping into a stream at first light. Recently, Laura, a regular dog walker and keen photographer, shared something new.

    Congregating on the sunny side of an old lime tree is a colony of firebugs. There are 50 or so, clustered together, like flames flickering up the trunk. Each is nearly a centimetre long, with ember-bright red backs marked by bold, symmetrical black shapes. These aggregations, typically on lime or mallow, are for mating and feeding. A firebug eats seeds, aphids or even its dead relatives, sucking out moisture with its proboscis.

  • Exclusive: Commission says alert would trigger coordinated international response that could help avoid millions dying

    The climate crisis should be declared a global public health emergency by the World Health Organization, or millions more people will die unnecessarily, leading international experts have said.

    The independent pan-European commission on climate and health, which was convened by the WHO, concluded the climate crisis was such a worldwide threat to health that the WHO should declare it “a public health emergency of international concern” (Pheic).

  • Despite the ban on disposables, waste professionals say the mountain of discarded devices is a £1bn-a-year issue

    It is 2pm and Ana, 47, has just started the afternoon shift at the Suez recycling plant near Birmingham city centre, standing beneath a sign reading “Non-ferrous sorting station” with a bucket of vapes in front of her. Sorting and dismantling them is part of her job as a site operative.

    Recycling them is not simple. Each bucket holds between 40 and 50 devices, and over the course of a shift, she gets through about half a bucket. Using a hammer, she has to smash each vape open, pry out the batteries and separate each component into a different container.

  • As new settlers clear their forest habitat, the apes are coming into conflict with humans. But simply moving them to another part of the forest may not be the answer

    The banana skins were an ominous sign. As was the branch that had been broken off to get to the fruit. Had Edi Ramliwalked into the forest, he might have seen scattered balls of bark that had been ripped off trees, chewed like gum, then spat out. It takes a powerful jaw to do that. Closer to Edi’s home, there was an intricate construction of bent and broken branches high in a tree. The nest.

    It was October, the fruiting season. The pile of half-eaten bananas was less than a minute’s walk from where Edi and his family slept. He felt nervous. He got on with his day. He picked sweetcorn and sold it at the market. He bought a carton of chocolate milk and biscuits for his grandson. He and his wife, Siti Munawaroh, ran the farm with their three adult children. They prepped the land, sowed seeds, tended crops. Survival depended on what they could grow.

  • Like many informal settlements, communities that have sprung up on the edges of Ayacucho in the Andes are on the frontline of extreme weather events

    In December 2009, a late‑afternoon storm unleashed torrential rain over Ayacucho, in Peru, hitting poor hillside neighbourhoods hard. The deluge overwhelmed drainage systems, turning streams into lethal flows of mud, stones and debris that flooded houses and streets and trapped drivers at a busy junction.

    Ten people died, 18 were injured, and 530 houses were destroyed or damaged, according to a government inquest. “It was a disaster,” recalls Edgar Castro, a leader in Ayacucho’s largest informal neighbourhood, Mollepata.

  • With Israel blocking imports of building materials, those rebuilding in Gaza are recycling ruins to make new homes

    It is difficult to see through the dust inside the cramped, low-roofed tent on the eastern edge of Khan Younis. Ibrahim al-Aloul works alongside four others, with a piece of fabric tied over his mouth and nose as his only shield against the toxic grey powder as he sifts and grinds.

    Outside, a skinny donkey waits with a cart to carry the finished product to the next tent along, where it will be mixed with gypsum, calcium and binding agents before being bagged in flour sacks and sold.
